It has been suggested that it looks bad when the Villages Trolley comes around to see a bunch of people in walkers and wheelchairs in the Recreation centers.
People from Assisted Living generally can not play golf swim or any other physical activity. At best they might get to a recreation center on a very limited bias. I would be more than happy to hear what the Recreation Department has to say about this. You would certainly hope that the reason they cannot enter the recreation centers is because the are old and use walkers and wheelchairs and that is bad for business. DO NOT TAKE MY WORD CALL THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT AND ASK WHY VILLAGES RESIDENTS CAN NOT VISIT THERE FREINDS IN RECREATION CENTERS SOME DAY THIS WILL BE YOU!!!!
Suggested by who ? I have many friends who live in the Villages and use walkers, wheelchairs & scooters.
It's just simple. If you live in the Villages you pay amenity fees to use Rec Centers, etc. If you live outside the Villages, and you don't pay an amenity fee, you can't use the facilities.
